The Great Indian Kitchen

Director R.kannan intentions are pure,just want to give a clear msg to the male chuvanistic propaganda that remains tagged as family head for ages in the past or be it future,keeps subtle and serves as a faithful to the original.... Aishwarya Rajesh holds the key of the movie,her performance will definitely fetch her some household name among female audiences and is a milestone in her career... Rahul Ravindran is not upto the mark remains as a mute spectator in viewers point of view especially emotion or anger situation seems to be pale and calm expression Overall a worthy package to watch out that serves a must see verdict or remake for every indian language...

A story too real and sort of leaves a bad taste in your mouth, but an eye-opener. Anyone who denies that it has an "anti-religious agenda" or "destroying tradition" definitely portray who they relate to in the movie, and are sadly confusing religion and mysogyny.

While some may say its targeting a certain ethnic group, I do not hesitate to say that it carries a message that goes beyond borders and touches everyone.

The movie captures the contrast between the beautiful Kerala and the ugly face of mysogyny and hypocrasy of the people. We used this movie as a starting point to open discussion around gender roles and stereotypes.

This is a pure waste of time movie- except for cooking and cleaning utensils and other house hold chores there is nothing much to be seen; it would have been better and a more useful story line if the heroine has some meaningful conversations and bring about a change in her husband and FIL rather than just leaving to her ambitions alone.

Am surprised in this day and age how a newly wed does all the works, doesn't bring up basic necessities in the house, doesn't even try to put forth any of her views but becomes rebellious at the end- doesn't help anyone.

Except for mockery of couple of age old traditions which may still be followed in some households there is no attempt to reason or have a conversation to bring about change.

The Great Indian Kitchen is a representation of most of the middle class family of India. The direction of the movie is fantastic that if we watch the full movie with our most focused mind we will be forced to withdraw our attention from the movie and here is the greatness of the movie that we can feel the regular boring and as well as hard life of a woman in a so called patriarchal society. Another movie titled "Jaya Jaya Jaya Jaya Hai" is also represent this type of critical environment but with a mixture of spices of comedy and unreality but this movie does not lack that thing. It has every element that can meet us the face to face with the absolute reality of women's condition in most of the world.

The movie focuses on stigmatising the Indian traditions, so pointlessly that it becomes at some point sordid to watch the movie.

Add to this the recent controversy of women entering Sabarimala temple and the poor movie maker thought, it might be the perfect recipe for a controversy.

Throw in a little menstrual fluid, they might thought, the movie will get a PIL notice at least and viewership of the movie on OTT at least is guaranteed.

At some point, little did they realise that harping on a point too much makes it stale.

I am sorry for Aishwarya to have undertaken such movies. Would be a blow to her career.
